Introduction

I created a project called "OpenMokoder" which should help to develop Qt4 projects for freerunner. You only need to copy your sourcecode or use the included sample project run the script and you can easy compile, debug, crosscompile, package your project with Trolltechs QtCreator. QtCreator is a very good lightweight Qt IDE with features like embedded Qt Designer, Code completion, debugging, svn, ...

Note:

This tutorial is tested with SHR and FSO

The installation process is based on Kubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid)

1. install Toolchain

First of all you have to install the toolchain. If you have already done this skip this step. I will just give a summary of how to do that for copy paste the detailed information can be found at Toolchain

3. configure Freerunner

SHR

SHR has Qt libs in the feeds you only need to install

opkg install qt4-x11-free

If Qt libs are not in the feeds

You shlould install the libs like this without adding the angstrom repository,
cause if you install the whole qt4-x11-free it installs dependencies which are
not compatible and the Freerunner doesn't boot anymore.

Personal tools

As long as there are no Qt 4.5 sources for arm this doesn't work on distributions shipping with Qt4.5 e.g. K/Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope).
